Karikatuur van Émile Zola tijdens een enquête 1898

This caricature by French artist Jean-Louis Forain depicts Émile Zola, a prominent French novelist and journalist, being interviewed. Created in 1898, the artwork is a satirical commentary on the French intellectual scene, as evidenced by the caption which states, "Everything that is French disgusts me." The drawing's simple lines and exaggerated features highlight the absurdity of the situation, making it a characteristic example of Forain's sharp social satire.
